Detailed linework from South African illustrator Gerhard Human

Gerhard Human has got to be one of my favorite illustrators ever. Hailing from Cape Town, South Africa, his very unique and detailed linework takes on an effortless, rounded, highly-stylized life of it’s own. Beautiful angles and unusual points of view, minimal color usage, and edgy subject-matter all add to the intrigue.

He includes a lot of old-school punk aesthetic, mixed with a bit of grimy hipster and melancholy. In a way, it’s very 1940s newspaper cartoon. Man, I wish I was this good.
